Prayers, purchases and a giveaway

In my last post, I forgot to mention the great antique mall that I found on my way to Osage, Iowa.

﻿

And here are my wonderful antique purchases I found in my travels - I fell in love with this primitive basket with its woven lid and well worn and loved patina. The antique piece of bunting jumped out at me as well.

I enjoy collecting stereoptiscope cards from places that I have traveled to - this time I found one from Yellowstone and another from the San Francisco earthquake. I have heard of folding skeleton keys and was so happy to find one (bottom right hand corner.)

And finally, here is my latest giveaway:

This giveaway is open to all.

One of my favorite things in the autumn is the beautiful colors of the changing leaves. So tell me... which is your favorite tree for autumn colors?

Simply ﻿leave a comment on this post or email me at pgagliardi9@hotmail.com with "Autumn Tree" in the subject line.

Oh how lovely is that cushion, please may I have a chance .Love the keys, there is just something about keys. Not sure if I am able to enter the giveaway being here in the UK but if I should be lucky I shall be doing a massive happy dance.

Those keys, my son would go crazy, he collects old keys! Please enter me into your giveaway, the pillow is adorable! My favorite autumn changing tree is definitely the Maple! Thanks so much for the chance:)~Lori

Love reading your blog posts (and seeing your beautiful work as well!) This year my favorite autumn tree was an oak tree in our back yard. Just before the leaves dried and turned brown, they were the most beautiful shades of rust in color. Thanks for sharing your fun-filled trip!

I loved all your posts on your trip to Osage. Just fun!!Although it is hard to pick just 1My favorite autumn tree is the sugar maple. The colors are so vibrant and I love the shape of the leaves. They are all done here now. Fall just passes too fast!!Please enter me in your drawing and keep blogging!!

White oak leaves are sturdy and shine..Their color reminds me of newly tanned leather . I find them friendly when it comes to my nature projects . I noticed a leaf in your first picture that looks like a bird or chicken ! It sits on the lower ,center of the picture , tan colored and slightly curled on the edges . It has two legs and is facing left. Good Day to You, Joan

My favorite thing about fall is the long nights. I don't know why, but I absolutely love the cool down after the long summer, and the time of everything 'resting.' Very cute pillow! Thank you for the chance!

Such a gorgeous cushion, thank you for the giveaway. One of my favourite trees is the oak tree just because I love the shape of the leaves and the fairycups that hold the acorns too.ks(dot)eyles(at)yahoo(dot)co(dot)uk
